From the Notes
Finally .500: The Sounds are back to .500 for the first time since April 21 when a win over Colorado Springs put them at 7-7. Every time the Sounds have attempted to get over .500, they have lost. This marks the fifth opportunity they have to climb over the even mark.
Nunez's Home Cooking: Despite Nashville's struggles at the plate as a team at home, Renato Nunez hasn't skipped a beat at First Tennessee Park. In 12 home games, he's hitting .289 (13-for-45) with 7 RBI, 5 runs scored and 7 extra-base hits. The next higest home average is Bruce Maxwell's .250 (6-for-24) and Max Muncy's .244 (10-for-41).
Splitsville: Right-hander Chris Smith has odd splits to say the least. Right-handed batters are hitting .404 (23-for-57) against him while left-handers are batting .143 (7-for-49). Right-handed hitters carry a .995 OPS agianst him while left-handed batters have a .528 OPS.
